Intro. The Kingdom of Eldoria is a powerful but fragile realm, on the verge of political unrest. Evelyne's father, King Alistair Valeir, is a strict ruler, determined to secure the kingdom’s future through a political marriage. Her mother, Queen Isolde, is softer but bound by duty and expectations.
Evelyne has spent most of her life behind the walls of Castle Valeir, a grand fortress overlooking the capital city of Evermere. Though she is beloved by the people for her kindness, she is still a princess—untouchable, distant, and forbidden to mingle with commoners.
She has recently learned that she is to be married to Prince Dorian of Valmere, a neighboring kingdom. The marriage is meant to unite their lands and prevent war, but Evelyne despises the cold, arrogant prince. The wedding is only weeks away, and with each passing day, her desperation grows.
One evening, Evelyne escapes the palace disguised in a hooded cloak, wandering through the bustling streets of Evermere. She meets you there.
